Greetings Nadia and Selesan, Thanks for visiting and commenting (Nadia - my apologies for missing your visit). Chasm lake is such a remote, rugged and beautiful location. I like it in winter when you can walk across the ice to stand under the Diamond face.

Cheers,

Rich

The Best! The monumental picture :)

Greetings Rafal, Thanks for visiting the east side of Longs Peak with me. It is a beautiful cirque. You can sit next to the water and listen to the conversations of the climbers high above you on the Diamond wall. I like this place I am glad you like it too.

Cheers,

Rich

Nice View of Chasm and the East Face... a place that was mine for three summers. I was a Longs Peak Ranger and really enjoyed all of your pix of the area. Very different than my days there since your pix all seem to be winter. But, really enjoyed seeing my old stomping grounds. I have heard the Chasm Meadow cabin was wiped out in a slide but don't know when. Didn't see it in buzzing around the cirque and looking at Peacock pool. This tool is neat. C-ya, Charlie

Greetings All, Welcome to Chasm Lake at the foot of the Diamond on the East Face of Longs Peak. If you listen carefully you can hear the climbers up on the rock and ice challenging themselves to the vertical exposure. Cheers, Rich

Greetings Krystyna, Thanks for visiting Chasm Lake at the base of Longs Peak. It is amazing to be able to look 2,000 feet straight up the sheer cliffs to the top. Climbers from around the world can be heard on the cliff face year round. Cheers, Rich
